New project for #typography & #calligraphy fans: we just launched the ARETE visualisation – a visual and interactive history of the Latin alphabet!

https://uclab.fh-potsdam.de/arete/en

The visualisation reveals the diversity and variance of the Latin alphabet in the last 2000 years.

The project is not complete. Rather, it is a first attempt to bring the history of the alphabet into an interconnected structure and to present the major historical developments in a clear, evocative way. We welcome feedback!
